Happy Republic Day from Suchitra Chatterjee and the IWNO family.

The covid-19 pandemic has negatively impacted our mental health. ⚠️

Taking care of your mental health is more important than ever❗

You've most likely been putting off a mental health check-in for a long time.

I invite you to look at and reflect on the image for a few moments.

What is the first thing that comes to mind for you❓

What position do you occupy on this list❓

Positive self-talk is a powerful tool for increasing self-confidence and reducing negative emotions. ❤️

Some people find it easier to adopt positive self-talk than others. In any case, it's a worthwhile step toward bettering yourself and increasing your self-esteem.

How do you talk to yourself❓

Would you talk to your loved one the way you talk to yourself? 🤔

Anyone who’s continually exposed to high levels of stress can experience burnout. ⚠️

Burnout happens when you are overburdened, emotionally exhausted, and unable to meet constant demands.

As the stress mounts, you begin to lose interest and motivation for taking on a particular role in the first place.

Are you avoiding being human❓

Like everything in life, good things take time, and it’s important to remember that when it comes to healing. ⚠️

”Healing takes courage, and we all have courage, even if we have to dig a little to find it.”
– Tori Amos

When we are healing emotionally, it can be hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel and it’s easy to miss signs that we are getting better.

Are you acknowledging your progress❓

Life can be fast-paced and hectic❗

"Acknowledge all of your small victories. They will eventually add up to something great."
- Kara Goucher

Our jobs can cause us to become so focused on the big picture that we overlook the minor details.

But, more often than not, it is the small things that add up to make a big difference over time.

The simple act of acknowledgment is one such gesture. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Have you taken a moment to yourself today❓

Shame shuts us down, causing an inability to connect. Humans are hard-wired to seek and desire connection. ⚠️

Shame does not survive when we share our story with someone and they respond with empathy and understanding. 🤷🏻‍♀️

If you found this post insightful, share it with someone who could use some help connecting!

Follow me for such gentle reminders❗

Kindness is Of the Greatest Forces in the World. ⚠️

“No act of kindness, however small, is wasted.”
– Aesop

Even when done quietly, kindness always stands out. It has the potential to transform the world, beginning with one person.

Kindness has the power to save and transform lives.

❓Are you choosing to be kind today?

❓Has anyone ever been kind to you?

I'd love to hear about your experiences. 😊

This month is about teaching acceptance and educating pride history, and above all, love❗

“Love: always inclusive, never divisive”
― Renae A. Sauter

While this post is aimed at q***r people, these affirmations can be applied to anyone, q***r or not.

Because the LGBTQIA+ community is all about love and inclusivity. ❤️

Colorful parades, concerts, and marches are held across the world to celebrate this day.

How are you making your space inclusive❓

Even though the words appear in similar contexts, their meanings are distinct❗

“Empathy is walking a mile in somebody else's moccasins. Sympathy is being sorry that their feet hurt.”
- Rebecca O'Donnell

Empathy is a one-on-one connection formed by a deep understanding gained through the sharing of an emotional experience.

A feeling of sadness or pity for another person is known as sympathy.

Empathy and sympathy can both be useful tools; after all, don't we all want to know we're not alone❓
